To docbook or not to docbook?

Recently I work on updating polish translation of QCad manual before its release in OpenOffice Polska. Andrew Mustun, QCad author, has switched to xparrot documenting tool, i.e. an online and offline toolkit, containing markup which is simplified compared to docbook. When using xparrot I sometimes think how faster my work is when I just use simple set of tags (that's why having this in KDE would make me motivated to update docs more frequently, and possibly - online). Yet I have not seen to many templates that take advantage of such semantics used in Docbook (which is great -but for machines)... <--!break--> Read More

sometime you really have to stay calm

Chouimat  | 
and I must admit it's hard to stay calm when you get stuff like I had this week but first a little background story is needed: Last year, I had a job interview with a small company, ok 3 interviews with them, and they all went well because I had the job but I had to wait 3 months so they can secure the money for the project. the 3 months passed and they still needed to secure the money, so they told me that they will call me when they will have it. The time passed and I completely forgot about them, who can blame me :) Thursday I received an email from them saying that if I still wanted the job I had to the end of the month to answer them and I would start by mid October ... So I decided to think about it and now I have to stop to think about it because this afternoon I received another email telling me that the Big Boss deceided to close the local office and transfert everything in Asia ...
